Carica papaya ● Water Science & Plants Protecting Endangered Plant Species Sweetwater slope: Bill and Pam Anderson To date, a total of 117 listed taxa have been recorded in 26 panhandle parks, making these parks a key resource for the protection of endangered plant species. 4 ● The Palmetto Volume 28:1 ● Winter/Spring 2011 in Panhandle State Parks by Gil Nelson and Tova Spector The Florida Panhandle is well known for its natural endowments, chief among which are its botanical and ecological diversity. Approximately 242 sensitive plant taxa occur in the 21 counties west of the Suwannee River. These include 15 taxa listed as endangered or threatened by the U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS), 212 listed as endangered or threatened by the State of Florida, 191 tracked by the Florida Natural Areas Inventory, 52 candidates for federal listing, and 7 categorized by the state as commercially exploited. Since the conservation of threatened and endangered plant species depends largely on effective management of protected populations, the occurrence of such plants on publicly or privately owned conservation lands, coupled with institutional knowledge of their location and extent is essential. District 1 of the Florida Sarracenia rosea (purple pitcherplant) at Ponce de Leon Springs State Park: Park Service manages 33 state parks encompassing approximately Tova Spector, Florida Department of Environmental Protection 53,877 acres in the 18 counties from Jefferson County and the southwestern portion of Taylor County westward.

  • FLORIDA DEPARTMENT of ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION Procurement Section 3800 Commonwealth Boulevard, MS#93 Tallahassee, Florida 32399-3000
    FLORIDA DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION Procurement Section 3800 Commonwealth Boulevard, MS#93 Tallahassee, Florida 32399-3000 February 19, 2016 Addendum To: DEP RFI No. 2016033C, entitled “Point of Sale System” The Department hereby answers questions posed by prospective Respondents. Unless expressly indicated, these answers do not amend the terms of the Request for Information (RFI). The Department hereby answers the following questions: 1. Is managing the schedule of reservations within the scope of this project, or is this simply for accepting payment for the reservations? Answer #1: Neither of these items is within the scope of this project. The POS will need to function with the existing reservation system on contract, ReserveAmerica, which already schedules and accepts payments for the reservations. 2. Can you provide a list of current vendors that require integration, as well as the intended purpose of the integration? Answer #2: The current vendors that the POS System will need to integrate with are the ReserveAmerica reservation system and the State Contract for Credit Card Processing Services with Bank of America. The intended purpose is for the Department to provide a real-time dashboard, showing data related to revenue, attendance, annual pass use, etc. at a Park, District and Statewide level. 3. Is there an expected method of integration to the State Finance and Accounting systems? Answer #3: Yes, at minimum, data will need to “connect” to the State Finance and Accounting systems through an electronic data file (i.e. Excel or CSV document with specific formatting). Data will need to be integrated at minimum on a monthly basis, but the Department’s ultimate goal is to have real-time data available.
